Jon Stewart laid into the BBC on Wednesday night, quipping that the British broadcaster’s sex abuse crisis made News Corp.’s phone hacking scandal “look almost quaint.”

Last week, the director-general of the BBC George Entwistle stepped down after the program “Newsnight” wrongly accused a politician of sexual abuse. The erroneous report came soon after news broke that same program axed an investigative story outing famed British broadcaster and former BBC host Jimmy Savile as a serial child sex offender. The program aired Christmas tributes to the broadcaster instead.
